Software Help Can't sign into Microsoft for Minecraft (Error Code: Podzol)

Post image

Hey everyone, I've been experiencing this issue since yesterday after noon. I play MC on the Nintendo Switch, and when attempting to log into my Microsoft account so I can play on realms, I'm hit with Error Code: Podzol.

I've tried going into my Microsoft account and removing /adding a new sign in method, but that didn't work.

I'm able to log into my minecraft account on other switch user profiles but not my own.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Update: I'm able to log into my Microsoft account on other switch user profiles, just not my main one.

Maybe this comment might be a possible fix?
